1.    Purpose of the Plan. The purpose of the Boise Cascade Company 2004 Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan") is to further the growth and development of Boise Cascade Company (the "Company") by providing a select group of senior management and highly compensated employees of the Company and its subsidiaries the opportunity to defer a portion of their cash compensation and thereby encourage their productive efforts on behalf of the Company. The Plan is also intended to provide Participants with an opportunity to supplement their retirement income through deferral of current compensation. The Plan is an unfunded plan.

2.    Definitions.

2.1    Bonus. The payout amount earned by a Participant under an incentive plan of the Company, but only to the extent the award is payable in cash.

2.2    Change in Control. A Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred if:

(a)    Any Person is or becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of either the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities; provided, however, if such Person acquires securities directly from the Company, such securities shall not be included unless such Person acquires additional securities which, when added to the securities acquired directly from the Company, exceed 25% of the Company's then outstanding shares of common stock or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities; and provided further that any acquisition of securities by any Person in connection with a transaction described in Section 2.2(c)(i) shall not be deemed to be a Change in Control of the Company; or

(b)    The following individuals cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the number of directors then serving: individuals who, on the date hereof, constitute the Board and any new director (other than a director whose initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest, including but not limited to a consent solicitation, relating to the election of directors of the Company) whose appointment or election by the Board or nomination for election by the Company's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least 2/3rds of the directors then still in office who either were directors on the date hereof or whose appointment, election, or nomination for election was previously so approved (the "Continuing Directors"); or

(c)    The consummation of a merger or consolidation of the Company (or any direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company) with any other corporation other than (i) a merger or consolidation which would result in both (a) Continuing Directors continuing to constitute at least a majority of the number of directors of the combined entity immediately following consummation of such merger or consolidation, and (b) the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or any parent thereof) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity or any parent thereof outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (ii) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar transaction) in which no Person is or becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 25% or more of either the then outstanding shares of common stock of the Company or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities; provided that securities acquired directly from the Company shall not be included unless the Person acquires additional securities which, when added to the securities acquired directly from the Company, exceed 25% of the Company's then outstanding shares of common stock or the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities; and provided further that any acquisition of securities by any Person in connection with a transaction described in Section 2.2(c)(i) shall not be deemed to be a Change in Control of the Company; or

(d)    The stockholders of the Company approve a plan of complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the consummation of an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company's assets, other than a sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company's assets to an entity, more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are owned by Persons in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Company immediately prior to such sale.

A transaction described in Section 2.2(c) which is not a Change in Control of the Company solely due to the operation of Subsection 2.2(c)(i)(a) will nevertheless constitute a Change in Control of the Company if the Board determines, prior to the consummation of the transaction, that there is not a reasonable assurance that, for at least 2 years following the consummation of the transaction, at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the surviving entity or any parent will continue to consist of Continuing Directors and individuals whose election or nomination for election by the shareholders of the surviving entity or any parent would be approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the Continuing Directors and individuals whose election or nomination for election has previously been so approved.

For purposes of this Section, "Beneficial Owner" shall have the meaning set forth in Rule 13d‑3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

For purposes of this Section, "Person" shall have the meaning given in Section 3(a)(9) of the Exchange Act, as modified and used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) thereof, except that “Person” shall not include (i) the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (ii) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities, (iv) a corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of the Company, or (v) an individual, entity or group that is permitted to and does report its beneficial ownership of securities of the Company on Schedule 13G under the Exchange Act (or any successor schedule), provided that if the individual, entity or group later becomes required to or does report its ownership of Company securities on Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act (or any successor schedule), then the individual, person or group shall be deemed to be a Person as of the first date on which the individual, person or group becomes required to or does report its ownership on Schedule 13D.

4.    Participant Deferral and Distribution Elections.

4.1    Eligibility. The Company shall identify those employees of the Company or any of its subsidiaries who are eligible to participate in this Plan ("Key Executives"). Eligibility to participate in the Plan is entirely at the discretion of the Company and shall be limited to a select group of senior management or highly compensated employees. Eligibility to participate in this Plan for any calendar year shall not confer the right to participate during any subsequent year.

4.2    Execution of Agreement. A Key Executive who wishes to participate in the Plan must execute a Deferred Compensation Agreement either (a) for newly eligible individuals, within 30 days after first becoming eligible to participate in the Plan, to defer Salary to be earned during the remainder of that calendar year, and Salary and/or Bonus to be earned during subsequent years, or (b) prior to January 1 of the first calendar year for which the Deferred Compensation Agreement will be effective, provided that an election to defer Bonus which qualifies as “performance-based compensation” under Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder must be made no later than 6 months prior to the end of the period with respect to which the Bonus is earned (other than elections with respect to the annual bonus for 2004, which must be made at the time of the initial election).

4.3    Deferral Election. When a Key Executive first becomes eligible to participate, he or she shall have the opportunity to make a Deferral Election which shall apply to Compensation earned and paid subsequent to the date of election. Each year thereafter that the Participant remains eligible to participate, the Participant shall have the opportunity to make a Deferral Election with respect to his or her Compensation earned in the following calendar year. Deferral Elections shall be made either by submission of a written Deferral Election Form in substantially the form provided in Appendix A or by completion of an online enrollment process, as designated by the Company. The Compensation otherwise paid to a Participant during each calendar year beginning after receipt of the Participant’s Deferral Election shall be reduced by the amount elected to be deferred. Elections to defer Compensation are irrevocable as of the end of the period for executing the Deferred Compensation Agreement under Section 4.2 with respect to initial Deferral Elections, and as of the end of the annual enrollment period established by the Company pursuant to Section 4.4 with respect to subsequent Deferral Elections, except as otherwise provided in this Plan. The amount of Compensation to be deferred will be specified in the Deferral Election Agreement, must be at least 6% of the Participant's Compensation, and will be limited to specified maximum percentages (designated by the Company’s senior human resources officer) of the Participant's Compensation.

4.4    Change of Deferral Election. A Participant who wishes to change an election to defer Compensation may do so by submitting a new Deferral Election during the annual enrollment period established by the Company prior to January 1 of

the year for which the change in election is to be effective. If a Participant does not request a change in his or her Deferral Election, the Participant’s current Deferral Election shall become irrevocable with respect to compensation to be earned during the following year on December 31 of the current year.

4.4A    Cessation of Deferrals. A Participant who takes a hardship distribution from a qualified 401(k) plan sponsored by the Company may not contribute to this Plan for at least 6 months after that hardship withdrawal. Deferrals will be automatically stopped upon such a hardship withdrawal. The Participant may make a new Deferral Election during the next annual enrollment period following the conclusion of the 6‑month period.

4.5    Distribution Election. At the time a Participant first elects to defer Compensation under Section 4.3, he or she must elect a distribution option for his or her Deferred Account either by submitting a written Distribution Election Form in substantially the form provided in Appendix A or by completion of an online enrollment process, as designated by the Company. In addition, Participants will have the opportunity to make a new distribution election during the annual enrollment period held during the fall of 2013 and each three years thereafter. Any new distribution election will apply to deferrals made in the calendar year following the election and thereafter until a new distribution election is made according to the terms of the Plan. Elections regarding distribution of deferred Accounts under this Plan are irrevocable when made except as otherwise provided in this Plan.

4.6    Change of Distribution Election.

4.6.1    In General. A Participant may request, in writing, a change of his or her Distribution Election at any time. The new election must (a) defer commencement of distribution for at least 5 years from the date distribution would have commenced under the original Distribution Election and (b) be received by the Company at least 12 months prior to the commencement of distribution of the Participant's Deferred Account under the original Distribution Election. The Company shall approve the request if it meets the requirements of this section. Approved requests shall not take effect until 12 months after the date the request was submitted.

4.6.2    2007 Election. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.6.1, any Participant who has a Deferred Account as of November 1, 2007, may request, in writing, a one-time change of his or her Distribution Election during the election period specified by the Company during 2007, but in no event later than December 31, 2007, provided that such election may apply only to amounts that would not otherwise be payable in 2007 and further provided that such election may not cause an amount to be paid in 2007 that would not otherwise be payable in 2007. This election shall not be available to any Participant whose distributions will have commenced as of December 31, 2007.

4.7    Company Contributions; Deferred Account Allocations and Adjustments.

4.7.1    The Company acknowledges that Compensation deferred under this Plan is not included as “compensation” for purposes of contributions made to the Company’s tax-qualified 401(k) plan (referred to as the “401(k) Plan”). Therefore, in order to keep Participants whole, with respect to Compensation deferred under this Plan, the Company will contribute an amount equal to the Company contribution (including both nondiscretionary and discretionary amounts) that would have been made to the Participant’s account in the 401(k) Plan if the Compensation was eligible under the 401(k) Plan (without regard to any limits applicable to the 401(k) Plan that would restrict any Company contribution under that plan). Such contributions shall be made to the Participant’s Deferred Account at the same time as such contribution would have been made to the 401(k) Plan.

4.7.2    The Company shall maintain a record of each Participant's Deferred Account balance, including deferrals and adjustments. Each Participant’s Deferred Account shall be adjusted to reflect the imputed interest, gains or losses attributable to the applicable Investment Account(s) selected by the Participant. Interest earned will be credited to a Participant's account on the last day of each month. Computation of the imputed interest, gains or losses with respect to any Investment Account shall be at the Company’s sole discretion.

4.8    Investment Accounts. If the only Investment Account offered is the Stable Value Account, Participants’ deferrals will be automatically allocated to the Stable Value Account. If more than one Investment Account is offered, the following terms apply:

4.8.1    Each Participant must allocate his or her current deferrals of Compensation to one or more of the offered Investment Accounts, either by submission of a written allocation form or by completion of an online allocation process, as designated by the Company and subject to any restrictions established by the Company.

4.8.2    Participants who are active employees may change the allocation of future deferrals to or from any Investment Account on any business day, with any change effective as of the first pay period beginning after the date of the change.

4.8.3    Participants who are active employees or who are separated from service under Section 5.2.2, may move all or any portion of their Deferred Account balance among any of the Investment Accounts, other than the Stable Value Account, on any business day, with any change effective as of the next business day.

4.8.4    Deferred Account balances allocated to the Stable Value Account may not be allocated to any other Investment Account.

4.8.5    Participants who are separated from service under Section 5.2.1 may not change the allocation of their Deferred Accounts among Investment Accounts.

5.    Distributions.

5.1    Distributions in General. The Company shall distribute a Participant’s Deferred Account balance according to the Participant’s Distribution Election, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5. The designated payment date for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A shall be the date stated in the Participant’s Distribution Election, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.

5.2    Plan Benefits Upon Separation from Service.

5.2.1    Upon Separation from Service for reasons other than death or Disability prior to satisfying the Rule of 70 or attaining age 55 with 10 or more Years of Service, the Participant's entire Deferred Account balance shall be automatically allocated to the Stable Value Account, notwithstanding any investment elections or allocation decisions previously made by the Participant. In addition, the imputed interest rate on the Participant's Deferred Account balance shall be adjusted, effective as of the date of Separation from Service, to a rate equal to Moody's (as such term is defined in Exhibit A). That rate shall apply to all undistributed amounts of the Participant's Deferred Account prospectively from the date of Separation from Service until such amounts are distributed from the Plan (except as otherwise provided under Section 5.6). Distributions under this Section 5.2.1 shall be made according to the Participant’s Distribution Election.

5.2.2    Upon Separation from Service due to death or Disability or upon Separation from Service after satisfying the Rule of 70 or attaining age 55 with 10 or more Years of Service, a Participant shall be paid his or her Deferred Account according to his or her Distribution Election. Unpaid balances under the installment election shall continue to be credited with imputed gains or losses based on the applicable Investment Account. Deferred Account balances for such Participants that are allocated to the Stable Value Account shall continue to be credited with imputed interest at Moody's times 130% prospectively from the date of Separation from Service until such amounts are distributed from the Plan (except as otherwise provided under Section 5.6).

5.3    Hardship Distribution. If an Unforeseeable Emergency occurs, a Participant may request a lump-sum distribution of an amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need plus amounts necessary to pay taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which

such hardship is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship). Determination of the amount reasonably necessary to satisfy the emergency need must take into account any additional compensation available due to the cancellation of the Participant’s Deferral Election pursuant to this Section 5.3. The Participant shall document, to the Company's satisfaction, that distribution of all or part of his or her account is necessary to satisfy the Unforeseeable Emergency. A Participant requesting a distribution under this Section must not have access to other funds, including proceeds of any loans (including loans under tax-qualified plans), sufficient to satisfy the need. Upon receipt of a request under this Section, the Company may, in its sole discretion, distribute a portion of the Participant's account balance in a lump sum, to the extent necessary to satisfy the emergency need. Any distribution will be made within 90 days of the Company’s receipt of such request. The Participant shall sign all documentation requested by the Company relating to the distribution. If a Participant receives a distribution from the Plan under this Section, his or her current Deferral Election shall be cancelled, and he or she shall not be eligible to participate in this Plan or any other nonqualified deferred compensation plan maintained by the Company for a period of 12 months following the date of the distribution. The Participant may make a new Deferral Election during the next annual enrollment period following the conclusion of the 12‑month period.

5.4    Small Account Distributions. If a Participant's Deferred Account balance is less than $10,000 on the date of Separation from Service, the Company shall distribute the entire Deferred Account balance in a lump sum to the Participant within 90 days following the Participant’s Separation from Service, regardless of the Participant's Distribution Election, and the Participant shall have no further rights or benefits under this Plan.

5.5    Distributions Following Participant Death; Designation of Beneficiary. The Company shall make all payments to the Participant, if living. A Participant shall designate a beneficiary by filing a beneficiary designation in the form and manner prescribed by the Company. A Participant may change his or her beneficiary at any time by filing a new beneficiary designation in the form and manner prescribed by the Company. If a Participant dies either before benefit payments have commenced under this Plan or after his or her benefits have commenced but before his or her entire Deferred Account has been distributed, his or her designated beneficiary shall receive any benefit payments in accordance with the Participant’s Distribution Election. If no designation is in effect when any benefits payable under this Plan become due, the beneficiary shall be the spouse of the Participant, or if no spouse is then living, the Participant's estate. The designated payment date for distributions under this Section shall be the date of the Participant’s death.

5.6    Effect of a Change in Control. The provisions of this Section 5.6 shall apply upon a Change in Control.

5.6.1    Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, after the third anniversary of a Change in Control, the imputed interest credited to Participants' account balances under this Plan shall not be based on an annualized rate in excess of 100% of Moody's.

5.6.2    Payment of a Participant’s Deferred Account balance shall be made according to the Participant’s Distribution Election.

5.6.3    Any Participant whose employment is involuntarily terminated for any reason other than disciplinary reasons within 3 months prior to the date of the Change in Control shall be deemed, solely for purposes of this Section 5.6, to be employed by the Company until the occurrence of the Change in Control and to have been terminated immediately thereafter.

5.7    Distributions Pursuant to a Domestic Relations Order.

5.7.1    A domestic relations order relating to benefits under this Plan shall be reviewed by the Company’s senior human resources officer or his or her delegate. The individual shall determine whether the order satisfies the definition in Internal Revenue Code Section 414(p). The Company may establish procedures for reviewing and processing a domestic relations order similar to the processing of domestic relations orders under the Company’s qualified plans.

5.7.2 The order must specify the name and last known mailing address and social security number of the Participant and each alternate payee. It must name the plan to which it applies. It must specify the percentage or amount of the Participant’s benefit which is payable to an alternate payee and the date as of which the amount or percentage is determined. The order cannot require the Plan to (a) pay any form of benefit not permitted under the Plan, (b) provide a benefit greater than the benefit to which the Participant is entitled, or (c) affect the benefits of another alternate payee with respect to whom a domestic relations order has previously been accepted by the Plan.

5.7.3 If the order is acceptable, a distribution to the alternate payee pursuant to the terms of the order shall be authorized as soon as administratively practicable without regard to the time distribution would be made to the affected Participant. If the order is not acceptable, that shall be communicated in writing to the Participant and the alternate payee, including identification of the provisions of the order that cause it to be unacceptable.

6.    Miscellaneous.

6.1    Assignability. A Participant's rights and interests under the Plan may not be assigned or transferred except in the event of the Participant's death, as

6.4    Service Providers. The Company may, in its sole discretion, retain one or more independent entities to provide services to the Company in connection with the operation and administration of the Plan. Except as specifically delegated or assigned to any such entity in writing, the Company shall retain all discretionary authority under this Plan. No Participant or other person shall be a third party beneficiary with respect to, or have any rights or recourse under, any contractual arrangement between the Company and any such service provider.

7.    Amendment and Termination. The Committee may, at its sole discretion, amend or terminate the Plan at any time, provided that the amendment or termination shall not adversely affect the vested or accrued rights or benefits of any Participant without the Participant's prior consent.

8.    Unsecured General Creditor. Except as provided in Section 9, Participants and their beneficiaries, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interest, or claims in any property or assets of the Company. The assets of the Company shall not be held under any trust for the benefit of Participants, their beneficiaries, heirs, successors, or assigns, or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations of the Company under this Plan. Any and all Company assets shall be, and remain, the general, unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Company. The Company's obligation under the Plan shall be an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to pay money in the future.

Any cash, marketable securities, and other property so transferred shall be held, managed, and disbursed by the trustee subject to and in accordance with the terms of the DCB Trust. In addition, from time to time, the Company may make additional transfers of cash, marketable securities, or other

property acceptable to the trustee as desired by the Company in its sole discretion to maintain or increase the Funding Amount with respect to this Plan.
